THE SEED
“And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.” – Luke 15:31 (KJV)
In the prodigal son’s story, the father’s words to the elder son remind us of God’s generous and unfailing love toward His children. While the elder son struggled with resentment, feeling overlooked because of his faithfulness, the father reassured him that everything he had always belonged to him. This is a picture of God’s relationship with us—He is ever-present, and His blessings are always available to those who remain in His presence. Often, we may feel unnoticed or unappreciated in our walk with God, especially when others receive special attention or grace. Yet, God’s assurance to us is the same: all that He has is ours. We are never lacking when we abide in Him. His love, peace, and provision are continually ours, not because of what we do, but because of who we are in Him. Therefore beloved of Christ, let us embrace the fullness of God’s blessings and live with the confidence that, as His children, we are never forsaken or forgotten.
BIBLE READING: Luke 15:25-32 (KJV)
PRAYER: Father, thank You for the assurance that all You have is mine. Help me to rest in Your love and to trust that I lack nothing when I remain in Your presence. Amen.
